1987 NABBA Amateur Universe: The Men - Prejudging
Also on Digital Download.
What a superb line-up of top physiques at bodybuilding's premier amateur event of the year!! This prestigious event, staged in London on September 12th at Wembley, was split into 3 separate height classes for men.
For the first time in NABBA history the Professional Class was held on a separate day at a different venue to the 1987 NABBA Amateur Mr Universe. This year the 1987 NABBA Professional Mr. Universe contest was held in Yorkshire, northern England. That date was 26th September, 2 weeks after the NABBA Amateur Mr Universe. For the 1987 NABBA Pro Mr Universe contest, please click here for GMV-068DVD.
This was the year when the powerful USA team swept away most of the titles winning 2 of the 3 men's classes plus the Women's Physique Class, and was the year that Steven Strunk, Jerry Scalesse, Larry Bernstein, Pete Moen and Joe Meeko competed. Steven very sadly died shortly after this event, and the world lost a great physique, and a beautiful person. (We worked with Steven, and he really was the nicest guy - see our DVD on him below.)
At the Prejudging, we shot the full posing routines of all the 36 competitors, plus all the key comparisons. See how Overall Amateur Mr Universe BASIL FRANCIS demolished his opposition at the Prejudging as a prelude to what he would do at the Overall Posedown at the evening Show. A great video of a wonderful event. Every single competitor is listed in the RESULTS below.
Running time: 120 mins
